Expedition Long Range Motor Yacht


If you have the spirit for adventure we have the vessel for you! Originally commissioned as a mothership for a fishing fleet in the Berring Sea in 1974 'Restless M' has led an adventurous life. She has been the subject of books and documentaries in her career on the high seas.
From the Atlantic to the South Pacific, she has given her succession of owners and crew some memorable times and been to many exotic ports.
Her original GRP construction is massive as she held the highest offshore commercial certification as required to operate in the North Atlantic Ocean.
The current custodians undertook a complete rebuild of the vessel just over twenty years ago. They commissioned a Naval Architect to design a completely new alloy superstructure. All the machinery, plumbing and wiring was stripped and replaced. All this work was done to a very high standard using modern technology and materials. There were no structural changes made to the integrity of the hull.
The vessel is designed to live aboard and be completely off grid. What was the cargo hold is now a fully equipped workshop and storage area. The master cabin (The Penthouse) is positioned on the upper deck leading directly off the bridge. Her fuel and water capacity gives her a range of 7500 NM, so she is capable of extended cruising anywhere you could wish to go.
